What to cook the ol' lady for dinner tomorrow?

My girlfriend is coming over tomorrow night after she gets off work. I would like to cook something for her, but I'm not sure what it should be. I can't cook her any kind of chicken, because she's burnt out on that from school.

So here I am, coming to the vast solutions of the CK5 brethren. Give me some ideas, or a recipe. I am a fairly decent cook, and time isn't really an issue, although I don't want to stand behind a stove all afternoon.

Breaded boneless pork chops . Chicken fried steak and gravy . Stir fry beef and vegetables over rice . Go check out food network , there are some good recipes there , my wife tried that big sweet country lady's recipe for chicken fried steak and I loved it , almost as good as my grandmas pan made gravy

My favorite fancy-pants dish that seems easy enough to make (I've never tried it though) is Basil Linguini..... I can't find a recipe for it, but this one looks pretty close. When I get it at work, I always get it with shrimp... and since I'm cool with the cooks, I ucually get 6 jumbo shrimp instead of 4

Do what I do. Screw everything up that you don't want to do. That way next time your wife/girlfriend wants you to do that she will say,"Um, I can do it for you." Thinking ( He F'd it up last time I better do it!). I haven't done dishes, laundry, dinner, vacuum, etc. for a long time

Seriously though, if you want to make a nice dinner; Order take out and put it on a plate

seriously.....there are a million simple dinner things you can do. If you do any kind of spaghetti meal, don't use burger-get italian sausage. Mild italian (the hot flavors take away from the other flavors, so avoid them) is best. If you want to change the spaghetti thing up, use a different style pasta....bow tie, rigatoni..whatever (note, takes a lil longer to boil-read the directions!) This goes for the rest of you too-italian sausage in the market here is less than hamburger-and it tastes a helluva lot better! Try it!
You can get one of those meal in minutes stir fry mixes...has the veggies and sauce packet frozen in one bag...all u have to do is brown the meat, add the bag...cook the rice...done!
Seafood lover? Drop by some stores and see if they have stuffed salmon. Its a Salmon steak, with a crab stuffing....all u have to do is bake it! boil some potatoes and make mashed potatos, add some frozen mixed vegies...full meal! done! (my gal loves stuffed salmon now -was the first thing i cooked for her, and she'd never had it before so it made it a bonus for me )
I could go on and on.....PM me with what you have on hand or what u have in mind and I can hook you up with some ideas.
